Janice Wolack and David Finkelhor of the University of New Hampshire Crimes Against Children Research Center have an important new study out on their survey of sextortion victims. I haven't read it yet, but I'm very glad someone is doing this research. Two findings immediately stand out.

We've discussed sextortion as a manifestation of "the future of violence" and as a form of remote sexual assault. But it's also worth considering this new type of assault as a new form of violence against women.
